.Best Way to Eat Your Way Through a Real-Life Thiebaud Painting

Stellina Pronto, Petaluma

Artist Wayne Thiebaud made a career out of painting pastries so luscious you could almost taste them—now, Stellina Pronto makes the real thing. This Petaluma gem is known for its house-made pastries, like pistachio chocolate croissants and Boston cream puffs, alongside Linea espresso and a seasonal, farm-to-table ethos. Co-owners Christian Caiazzo and Katrina Fried have built a true community hub, where top-tier pastry chefs turn local ingredients into edible masterpieces. With their long-awaited wood-fired pizza now in the mix, Stellina isn’t just serving food—it’s plating up art. And in this case, you can eat the paintings.
